    Nordic Weapons

    Can the nordic weapons be picked up from enemies? So far I've only come across armor sets from bandit chiefs, but no weapons. I'd hate to spend two extra perks in smithing to just get to Advanced Armors to craft them. My character is level 40, is it still too early to get weapons?

    Shields

    I'm thinking of going light armor for a sword and shield playthrough, as I prefer a more dexterous character during combat. Thing is, all the cool looking shields seem to be heavy ones. So, I have 2 questions: 1. Do shield offer you armor protection? If I go light armor, then eventually light...

    PC Alchemy Bottle Mods?

    I'm looking for a mod that changes the bottle type of self crafted potions. The ones in the shop changes as their strength and value go up, but the ones I craft myself seem to stay the same bland "minor" versions of the bottle. So, any mods out there that changes bottle type, so the stronger...

    Who is your most hated enemy in Skyrim?

    Archer bandits. They somehow always find their arrows on my face despite holding up a shield. Also bandit chiefs who gets a killcam on me, despite the fact that you still have more than half of your health left.

    Advice on character building and mods

    After getting totally fed up with all the bugs introduced in the latest skyrim patch and a few issues with the unofficial ones on nexus, I decided to take a break from skyrim until they're all fixed. Meanwhile, I've decided to revisit OBLIVION! I've merely started playing Oblivion 2 years ago...

    Disrupt killcams?

    thanks, I'll check that out. I'm on pc, so it's all good. Have you used the mod? Just wonder if there's any bugs or issues with it from your experience.

    Disrupt killcams?

    Has anyone found a way to disrupt killcams? Or maybe just disable the enemy's killcams on me. I just don't like seeing myself getting killed that way. I do a lot of close combat, sometimes a killcam happens immediately after the enemy just attacked, which doesn't give me time to heal. The only...

    What armor looks best for an Archer?

    Early to mid game, definitely studded armor for me, with fur bracers and boots (the ones stormcloaks use). Then a mage's cowl. I don't like anything metalic since it doesn't give you that wilderness feel of a hunter. And if I'm travelling in snow, I put on the long sleeve fur armor, but not the...

    PC DLC problem

    If your dlcs are not activating after putting them in the data folder, the first thing you should do is to check whether they are ticked under "Data Files" in the launcher. If "Data Files" is greyed out and you can't click on it, go to: documents\my games\skyrim\ and open the SkyrimPrefs.ini...

    PC Bandit Chief not levelling properly

    Fixed! You're right, its the cleaning, stupid BOSS recommendation. I reinstalled the patch and dlcs. Bandit chief now levels with my character. Thanks!

    What is your preferred difficulty to play on and why?

    My preferred difficulty is expert. NPC gain a slight bonus to attacks and defence, giving me the opportunity to fight more skillfully. Adept can be quite easy, especially if you specialize in particular skills. However, even expert gets a bit easy after lvl 25. That's why recently I've being...

    PC Bandit Chief not levelling properly

    Thanks again. I'm on PC, and besides all the dlc and unofficial patches, the only mods I have are a few weather mods and skyui. I don't believe weather mods can affect leveling of npc characters. So the only thing I can think of that can affect leveling is the recent patch or unofficial patches...

    PC Bandit Chief not levelling properly

    Wait until you reach a higherlevel and then check them again Thanks for the reply. I did wait for a couple of levels and am now lvl 15. I also just loaded another character I did who was lvl 27, but a randomly encountered bandit chief is still lvl 6...

    PC Bandit Chief not levelling properly

    Recently I upgraded to the latest patch and all the dlcs. However, I noticed that I am able to raise bandit chiefs with the novice level raise zombie spell. I don't recall this ever been possible. When I checked the bandit level with the console, it says lvl 6, and it has been staying at that...

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    In vanilla skyrim, there's very little texture difference between the face and body, though if you look very closely you do notice a slight difference in color and textural quality. However, I think what you're experiencing isn't an issue at all, but simply the way skyrim casts shadow and...

    Help with a New Build Please.

    Have you tried playing as a combat archer? It can be a lot more fun than the sneaky stuff, and it offers a totally different combat experience. Combat archer is all about quickness and precision during a heated battle. You may also use the surrounding landscape to your benefit. I'm playing one...

    Face & body color mismatch...

    It's not that obvious, but there seems to be a color mismatch between the face and body of female npcs, especially nord women. Their faces are more greyish under overcast lighting. I think this happened after trying out a few face mods like Better Females by Bella, No more Blocky Faces, Female...

    Stagger Calculation?

    Anyone have any idea how to calculate stagger chance and duration? Just a few observations: At level 2: I tried power hitting the Draugr Overlord at Bleak Falls Barrow with a greatsword, and it almost always staggered; but the one-handed sword only had about 30-50% chance of stagger. Also, the...
